YOu can google the cancer but I am presuming it is secondary and I would suspect it was originally in liver or somewhere else. Here is a link that explains the difference.  My prayer is for you and your dad to not suffer and find a way to help.http://www.cancercompass.com/bone-cancer-information.htm On 1/10/2008 bonecancspread2liver wrote:dad has bone cancer just diagnosed the cancer is supposedly in his liver and in the past 2 monthes he has lost 35 pounds the say he has diabetes all of the sudden his eyes are yellowish orange and the docttor said he is too far gone for treatment I am devastated and dont know what to do or what to expect 3 months ago he seemed healthy and hurt his foot and its been awful eversince he is only 56 please help me with any info please   mmsurvivor Fri, 18 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT I am so sorry to hear about your father. I'm actually writing to you because what you say your dad is going through...my mom is too. You said something about your father's knees hurting along with all of his other joints. Whenever my mom goes to stand up she screams because the pain is excruciating. she says it feels like a metal pole going through her knees. Her fingers are so swollen the skin is starting to break. When she went to get her blood test results back they told her that some kind of enzyme in her liver was an abnormal level and she needed to go for a liver biopsy in order to determine cancer or not. Please help me and let me know anything. Thank you so much and I too am sorry for what you are going through. Just think that your not alone. lacey07 Sun, 17 Feb 2008 00:00:00 GMT
